Yes, according to ancient Greek poets, Apollo is Zeus's son through a goddess named Leto.

Few know that the story of Apollo's birth was a prophecy about Jesus Christ and the virgin Mary. How did the Greeks know about Jesus? Well, the Christian Bible says that God inspired some of the Athenian poets yet their messages were terribly misinterpreted.

Back to the myth: When Leto was pregnant, Hera (Zeus's jealous wife) made sure she had no place to give birth to Apollo. Likewise, there was no room in any inn for the pregnant virgin Mary. When Leto finally found a place to give birth, it was a place surrounded by animals. Likewise, when Jesus was born, he and Mary were surrounded by livestock in a stable.

Besides Apollo, there were other predictions or parables about Jesus in Greek writings. By the way, Jesus on Earth was nothing like the paintings and movies you see. His real image was changed for political reasons during the Medieval Era.
